Over on my windows install I use a program called Antimicro to bind keyboard hotkeys to one side of my gamepad for convenience when I’m drawing in Krita (ie undo, zoom in, rotate, etc). Is there a similar application available on Manjaro?
I see something called QJoyPad on the Snap store, but I’d rather use something straight from Manjaro’s repositories if possible, because I have no idea how safe anything on Snap might be.
In xfce4-settings-manager → keyboard → application shortcuts tab(for xfce DE)
Pls provide system info
Every DE (KDE Plasma, XFCE, GNOME) have their particular place and way to set and store shortcuts. Please provide from terminal:
inxi -Fazy
so at least we are not speculating.
Antimicro development have stalled and have been forked as antimicrox which is in the AUR AUR (en) - antimicrox

I’ve mainly been using Cinnamon as of late.
I’ll keep that in mind as an option, thanks!
Then you go to System Settings > (Hardware) Keyboard > Shortcuts (tab)
And you add custom shortcut(s) from the bottom button … Add custom shortcut
I’m looking for a way to map keyboard stuff to my gamepad, not this. But thanks anyway.
For example, say I press left dpad on my gamepad, I could have bound it to ctrl+z, which would perform an undo in Krita. I’m looking for an application on Manjaro that would let me do that.
So AUR’s my only bet at the moment then, eh? Guess I’ll give it a shot. Pamac is what I use for that on Manjaro, right?
SC-Controller is another alternative. I like the interface, more easy to use for me.
It’s on AUR too, so you will need to activate it on Pamac preferences.
